Love your mission, really hope you can build something competitive enough to make the internet more distributed.

I searched for one of the keywords that rank one of my blog posts on top in Google and it shows someone that copied my article word by word -years later- instead of my site.

Not sure how the algorithm works but you may want to look into original sources and copycats. In this particular case it's not a critical issue (just me, some random guy, losing a visit and ad revenue) but at a larger it could be more serious.

Thanks and for the feedback. Could you share the search you did and offending copycat? You can do that here or using the Feedback link, bottom right on the SERP
Thanks to your Colin for replying back, I've sent you a Feedback message with extra info hoping it helps. Keep it up! :)
Many thanks, got it.
Maybe if that copy-cat's page has more google ads it will pop before yours, they just want users to see more ads.
